Intimacy with God was by far one of my favoritist weeks.
I am going to share some of the quotes our speaker Dan shared with us. Intimacy with God is God wanting to do something with us just because we want to. There is no ulterior motive. Just think God wanting to spend quality time with us. How beautiful is that.
In your walk as a Christian you discover that God is in love with you over and over again.
The one phrase that really hit home to me was, If God asks you to do something, your ready!
Have you ever stopped to think what kind of man Jesus was? One that you only met for 30sec. and you leave all that you know to follow Him. Are we willing to do that?
Ministry itself is not a moment but a lifestyle. God is the center and everything else branches out from Him. So everything you do, do for the glory of God.
One important rule to live by is to live by God's character and not our own experience. This is one area in witch I have had trouble. I have relied to much on my own experience. I need to trust His character.
One of the things the speaker said was, I want to lean so hard on Jesus that when He moves I fall down. I really feel that is exactly what I am here to learn.
Passion is falling in love with God. This has been a journey for me. I had to ask myself if I had fallen head over heels in love with God. Wow, not quite there yet, but on a journey to it.
Our fears can be invitations to discover how good God is. When we fail God picks us up and then brags about us. He is proud that we at least tried. That should encourage us to keep moving forward.
Well this will be the last of my writings for awhile. I am leaving today for Kathmandu, Nepal. They suggest not blogging because they want the site to be secure. Please pray for safe travels and for protection while we our overseas. I will be back in the U.S. June 11th. Hope to catch up with you then.
